Well, I don't have Glenn's latching idea, but here's an idea to make the
drawers lighter - use the steel slides, but fastened only to the top of
the
drawer-front. The drawer itself is merely a mesh shape suspended from the
slides and a bar across the back. From outside, you see the traditional
drawerfront, from inside, you have a super-light, well ventilated holding
area.

Actually I did that in the Galley. Built a produce storage drawer at the
bottom of the cabinet with 1/4" stainless mesh bottom and back so the
veggies get good ventelation. It will be a couple of years before I can
report on how well it works though.

Get back to work Glenn. We are all eagerly awaiting the completion of
that boat.

Good idea ;-)

Now, Wayne... We all know that when it is launched, it will merely be entering
the 50-year "sea trial" part of its building. Boats are never "completed"

That is true, but it's also true that a boat in the water under going
a perpetual sea trial is a lot "completer" than one in the backyard
under construction.

I have nothing but admiration for Glenn's work of course. If it was
me I'd have probably launched it half finished and left it that way
while "testing it out".
